A bicycle worth £6,000 was stolen this morning by thieves inside Richmond Park when its owner went to the toilet.

The theft happened at the toilets near Colicci Cafe by Roehampton Gate.

Royal Parks Police said: "A black Specialized bike worth £6k was stolen outside #Roehampton Cafe toilets this morning at 08:20 whilst the rider went inside, leaving it unlocked. Please lock your bikes, even if you're just popping inside.

"Now would be a good time to remind cyclists that it's always good practice to register with @bikeregister or @ImmobiliseCrime including adding micro dots/data tags to your bikes so we can identify them if recovered."

BikeRegister is a free marking and registration scheme with nearly a million bicycles signed up.

Police added on Monday morning: "If seen, please call officers at Richmond Park on 07920 586546 and quote Ref 0713161/20."
